Complex Clouds, Magnificent Magical Tantalizing Textures, Span Sunset - IMRAN®
Words can barely capture the incredibly complex cloud textures and tones that spanned the early August sunset over Tampa Bay. Earlier rain had made the pavers around the pool look darker.
This HDR (high dynamic range) panorama was created from about eight handheld shots taken with the Nikon D850, stitched together in Adobe Lightroom Classic CC.
On one side, sharp clouds carved dramatic shapes, while in the middle, higher formations smoothed into silky, fog-like patterns. Even farther above, smaller distant shapes reflected the fading sun’s light, deepening the scene into darker, redder tones.
I chose not to “correct” those hues, because they lend the image an indescribable richness—one that others often chase with filters, but nature gifted me directly.
